i'm worried about the fiscal cliff, yes. negotiations look ugly. also i'm worried about u.s. stocks once they start to go ex-dividend and costco and disney on december 10th will be poster children for what happens to a stock after it pays out its dividend. so what i'm interested in is selling euro on the unemployment data that comes up. i'm taking an event like unemployment day and trying to sell it on a rally. i want to do that around 13175. profit down around 12975 and stop loss at 13250. again it's just this week. we have decent risk. most of the risk on trades will hold including euro. next week not so much. >> not least because the fed is meeting and may substantially weaken the dollar on its announcement on qe or are we not as sensitive on the greenback to that at the moment? >> i think that's priced in. what's not priced in is what happens after the ex-dividend date for stocks. i think they rallied back from their post-election blues because so many companies have issued new dividends. the fact that you were talking about apple and then not payi i a dividend and that's

yep, the president and speaker boehner hold a fiscal cliff phone call, but there is still one big problem. the white house doesn't seem to want to budge! they want a tax and spend. >> if congress in any way suggests that they're going to tie negotiations to debt ceiling, i will not play that game. >> gretchen: so michelle malkin is going to stop by and she says the president needs to read the constitution? she's right around the corner. >> steve: and this experiment shows what happens when pot heads meet potholes. so is our safety at risk behind the wheel now that marijuana is legal in two states? recreational marijuana. a live report straight ahead. >> brian: plus, rare personal look inside the life and mind of one of the most feared men ever to play heavyweight boxing for a sport. a former champion. mike tyson joins us live and open up about his marriage. startling revelation about his drug use and will he or will he not be in "hangover 3". that's the penetrating question my son needs to know.
